Families

 We've had the pleasure of working with two amazing families over the past few weeks.

I've finally finished editing all the photos for the White Family, all 50 of them! It was a big task, but there was bound to be a lot of pictures with such a lovely big family!

Here are some of my favourites from the shoot. :)

And yesterday, KC and I worked with Natalie and her children Kayla and Alex. They were fun kids to work with and Mum was awesome.

KC has these photos to edit, so I've just added the few that I took on my camera. There will be more to come soon.

Unfortunately our next few weeks are pretty empty. We don't have anything new planned until mid August! I took a lot of bookings over the past couple of weeks, but they're all for September!

Hopefully we will get some business going. I am very keen to take some more lovely photos and meet some new families!

I hope it comes across in our photography, just how much we ENJOY what we do. We don't do this for the money, that's for sure! This is the inverted pay cheque, we spend more money on our business than we earn! We're not very good entrepreneurs haha. But we do love what we do!

This week so far.

We've had a nice and busy week here! 

A Tumblr mama meet up on Wednesday,  a family shoot in Noosa with an amazing family and lots of Max time in between. By Max time I mean, chasing my incredibly energetic 10 month old around while he gets into everything!

Here's a sneak peek of our shoot from Thursday, there will be more to come soon!

We shot the beautiful White Family. 7 kids plus Mum and Dad meant we got a lot of experience and SO many photos! Meeting this amazing family was lovely and I would love to work with them again.

And here's a snippet of what Max, Na and myself got up to on Saturday!

Hope you all had a fantastic week! :)

Bath times.

The boy loves his baths!
When I walk into the bathroom his slow crawls turn to excited gallops as he follows me in.

He stands at the edge of the bath and chats and squeals away as I run the water and put some toys in.

Forever trying to dive right in, I have to stop him as he cocks his leg up to get over the edge.

Once he's in, so begins half an hour of splashing, squealing, chasing toys and examining the plug.

I love sitting with him and just watching him. He is so amazing.

Baby Expo and Skeletons!

 On Saturday, KC and myself took the boys to the Brisbane Pregnancy, Babies and Children's Expo at Southbank.

It was packed! And we had two great big prams! Note to us; Next year, NO BABIES! Haha.

It was nice to look through all the stalls and check out the baby items, KC bought a few things and I discovered the wonder of Baby Mum-Mum rice treats. Max chowed down on the samples that I got and loved them so much that I had to go back and buy a heap of them! Haha.

After the Expo we took the boys and had a nice wind down at the Southbank Parklands.

We had a burger and chips each and watched the boys interact. As usual, Max was a bully to Byron and made him cry.

I also found out Max's skeleton PJ's the day before and was delighted to find that Max fits them! They're a size 1 on his 00-0 body, so a little baggy, but still damn cute!

I think he looks so adorable in them! :D

Afternoon Sun

Hanging out with the boys in the backyard.
Max has Hand Foot and Mouth, so the boys were kept well apart from each other.

You wouldn't think he was sick, judging from those smiles!

Lazy Sundays

 I always call them Lazy Sundays, but when you have a VERY active 9 month old, there's really not much time to be lazy!

With Max on the move, I'm constantly looking for ways to entertain him before he wrecks the house!

At bath time we tried out some Crayola Colour Bubbles. Great big purple bubbles that spray purple dots everywhere when they pop, they make bath time very entertaining!

Max enjoyed popping each of the bubbles as they landed on the water, and painting in the purple goo on the side of the bath tub.

Earlier in the day we did some experimenting with Play Dough! I had bought some the week before and secretly, I was more excited to play with it than Max.

He loved tearing off little pieces of the dough and studying them carefully, inspecting each piece and squishing them between his fingers.

Of course he had to taste the dough, but it only took one taste before he decided that it was gross!

I look forward to many, many more of these "lazy" Sundays. They are the best days for me to spend time and bond with my son. There's no stress on Sundays.

Baby Byron

 

In the studio with baby Byron. He's such a good little poser!

Can't say the same for my son. I have no pictures of him that aren't blurry. 

The boy won't sit still ever!
